Ghana and Tanzania are set for a decisive clash in the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) Group C on Monday, July 14, 2025, at the Berkane Stadium in Morocco. Both teams enter this final group match with one point each and must secure a win to maintain hopes of advancing to the quarter-finals[1][3][5].

Tanzania currently holds third position in the group due to a better goal difference (-1) compared to Ghana’s (-2). The winner will move to four points and could secure second place or, at minimum, stand a chance of qualifying as one of the two best third-placed teams, depending on outcomes elsewhere in the tournament[1][5].

In the other decisive Group C fixture, defending champions South Africa and Mali—both on four points—will play simultaneously. South Africa leads the group on goal difference[5].

Tanzania’s coach Bakari Shime expressed confidence ahead of the match, emphasizing that his team has worked on correcting mistakes from their previous tight loss to South Africa and is ready for a historic performance. He called on Tanzanian fans to rally behind the team as they seek to reach the WAFCON knockout stage for the first time[1][3][8].

Ghana, meanwhile, faces the challenge of overturning recent group stage struggles—they have advanced beyond the WAFCON group phase only once in the last five editions. Black Queens players and officials highlighted the importance of national support and their determination to break this pattern with a strong showing against Tanzania[2][6].

The high-stakes encounter is scheduled for 8:00 p.m. West Africa Time (10:00 p.m. East Africa Time) and will be broadcast live on GTV Sports Plus[2].
